A man was struck and killed by an Amtrak passenger train in Chenoa Friday night.

The McLean County Coroner’s Office said a middle-aged white male was pronounced dead at the scene at 9:43 p.m. The victim was later identified as Anthony Bernardini, 53, last of Spring Valley, Illinois. The preliminary cause of death was listed as multiple blunt force injuries from being struck by a train.

Preliminary evidence indicates Bernardini was struck while walking near the intersection of U.S. Route 24 and Morehead in Chenoa. Officials say alcohol may have been a contributing factor in the death and toxicology tests have been ordered.

Bernardini had been living with family in Chenoa and was likely walking home when the incident occurred, according to authorities.

The Chenoa Police Department is assisting the coroner’s office with the death investigation. Responding agencies to the scene included Lexington Police, McLean County Sheriff’s Department, Chenoa Police and the Chenoa Fire Department.
